After dinner, Tao Qiuyan knew that the young people had their own topics to discuss, so she gave the four of them some space.
Having learned of this situation in the afternoon, Ye Beiping was completely lost in thought, trying to come up with a solution.
Seeing this, Jiang Hai suddenly frowned and asked, "Beiping, what's wrong?"
Ye Beiping snapped back to reality when he was called out. He realized it was Jiang Hai calling him, paused for a moment, and then slowly shook his head.
"nothing."
Wu Di, standing to the side, asked curiously, "Is it about Ye Sheng?"
"well."
Ye Beiping sighed, not knowing how to explain the situation. But now it was better for everyone to work together than for him to come up with a solution on his own: "I guess so. I don't know how to best prevent Ye Sheng's situation."
The other three also fell into deep thought upon hearing this.
Before Ye Beiping arrived, they had discussed the matter, but couldn't come up with a practical solution.
They even considered asking Tao Qiuyan to return to Taoping Village, but they didn't know who to ask or what reason to give.
They've already said nothing will happen.
They'll make it seem like they're forcing Tao Qiuyan to leave Pingba Village.
Wu Di's eyes lit up instantly, thinking: That's right, didn't we just come back from Beiping?
He spoke up as soon as he thought of it and said what he was thinking.
Upon hearing this, Ye Beiping pondered for a moment and also thought it was a good idea.
"This method seems good, but what's the justification?"
Jiang Hai, who was standing nearby, immediately said, "Are you guys stupid? We're building a new house soon, you can use that as an excuse."
Wu Di and Hou Baolin thought about it and their eyes lit up; it was indeed a good reason.
But Ye Beiping shook his head: "No."
"Why?" the three asked in unison.
Building a new house doesn't require Tao Qiuyan's help at all; isn't that a perfect excuse?
Ye Beiping looked at the three of them, pursed his lips and said, "When my family builds a new house, we just build a new foundation. We're not demolishing the old house. Why would I send my mother to my maternal grandfather's house? My mother isn't stupid. Doesn't she think about it?"
"She'll definitely be thinking about my safety then."
The three of them immediately deflated, as if Ye Beiping's words made sense.
Hou Baolin angrily said at this moment, "It would be better to get rid of Ye Sheng once and for all."
Seeing that Hou Baolin, who usually only spoke with his fists, could actually use idioms, Ye Beiping and the other two raised their eyebrows.
However, this is not the time for jokes.
Jiang Hai patted Hou Baolin's arm and said, "The idea is good, but don't say it again next time."
"Then what do you suggest we do?" Hou Baolin seemed to feel that everyone looked down on him, and he instantly became unhappy.
Wu Di offered a suggestion: "Isn't Sister Xiaoxin's restaurant about to open in Beiping? Why don't we send Auntie to Hangzhou?"
"Yes, I agree." Hou Baolin was the first to raise his hand.
Jiang Hai thought for a moment and nodded, "I agree."
Seeing that all three agreed to the plan, Ye Beiping fell into deep thought and remained silent.
He had already thought about this idea that afternoon.
If my mother disagrees once I bring it up, it would be rather abrupt to bring it up a second time.
"Is it not okay?" Wu Di asked, frowning, when Ye Beiping remained silent.
Jiang Hai and Hou Baolin also looked at Ye Beiping with puzzlement.
They thought Wu Di's suggestion was quite good, so why did Ye Beiping seem to disagree?
"It's not that I disagree."
Ye Beiping took a deep breath and explained, "Have you thought about this? The opening of the restaurant is a big deal, but isn't building a new house a big deal too? In their minds, building a house is far more important than the opening of the restaurant. What if... she doesn't agree to go to Hangzhou? If we bring it up when we're thinking of a second option, won't she notice?"
“Yes.” Hou Baolin scratched the back of his head and said.
This matter seems very difficult to handle. It would be better to do as he suggested earlier and directly address the root cause by eliminating Ye Sheng.
But everyone disagreed.
Even if they agree, who will actually do it?
Jiang Hai then used his talent to appease his elders.
"Bei Ping, Fatty's idea is actually not bad. If we tell Auntie that the house won't be ready so soon, it wouldn't be a bad idea to let her go to Hangzhou to help Xiao Xin first."
After spending a lot of time with everyone, Jiang Hai started calling Hou Baolin the same way Ye Beiping and the others did.
“That’s a good idea. Knowing Auntie’s personality, she’ll definitely agree,” Wu Di chimed in from the side.
Suddenly, Tao Qiuyan's voice came from the side.
"What do you mean you agreed?"
When they looked up, they found Tao Qiuyan standing not far from them, and it seemed that she hadn't just been standing there.
They didn't notice it while everyone was gathered around the brazier discussing.
Ye Beiping then gave a silly laugh and asked, "Mom, when did you get here?"
Tao Qiuyan frowned slightly at their strange behavior: "I'm thirsty and was about to get a drink of water when I heard you discussing something here. Are you planning to cause some trouble again?"
After glancing at the group, Tao Qiuyan, being quite perceptive, looked at Jiang Hai, who seemed like a filial son and was older, so she figured he wouldn't do anything reckless.
"Jiang Hai, tell me, were you two just discussing something bad?"
Originally, the pressure was to be shared among four people, but now all the pressure is on Jiang Hai alone, and he instantly becomes nervous.
After a moment of stunned silence, Jiang Hai, prompted by Ye Beiping's gaze, cleverly revealed the reason.
"Auntie, what are you saying? Even if they do something while I'm here, I won't agree to it."
"Really?" Why was Tao Qiuyan so skeptical?
